<p>[QUOTE="randygeki, post: 1820933, member: 13719"]Not sure if this one counts, as I never not liked it. It was recommended(thank you Doug) to me, but I was set on getting a high grade denarius of Geta, with a very ugly portrait. Fortunately, the coin I bought was "missing" and I was able to get this at a discounted price. I liked it enough to get it as a second choice, but now it's one of my favorites. I later got a nice coin of Geta with a good portrait, ironically through the same process of buying a coin(from a different dealer this time) that also was missing, also discounted. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]298927[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Philip I AR Antoninianus.
